Julie Delpy and Ethan Hawke look set to team up again?Rumors have been circulating for months that the pair, who starred onscreen together in the Richard Linklater films Before Sunrise and Before Sunset, had found a third project-a vampire flick Delpy wrote and is directing called The Countess.But sorry, you'll have to drive a stake through the heart of that rumor. Hawke won't be getting fitted for fangs anytime soon."He's been out of the picture for a while," Delpy said last night at the AFI Festival premiere for the teen pregnancy flick Juno at ArcLight Cinemas in Hollywood.Delpy explained Hawke's involvement was only going to be a cameo, but scheduling conflicts prevented it."He's doing a play right now, and I'm not going to stop my film for two days of work [with Hawke]," Delpy said. "It's not a big deal-he was doing it for fun, for me."Unfortunately, there's another favorite you won't see with Delpy anytime soon-Emmy award-winning Weeds actress Mary-Louise Parker.The two were attached to star in Les Passages, a romantic comedy about a film director (Parker) working in Paris who is taken with a French actress (Delpy).

"I don't think I'm going to be able to do it, because I'm doing my film," Delpy sighed.
